- the card is printed on the card at step 417.
- the information required to be visible on the card is printed.
- the identification card is encoded with the required authorizations for employee access.
- the RFID Chip may be encoded to allow access to specific locations.
- the RFID Chip can then be read by RFID Chip readers placed at specific access points.
- the RFID Chip or magnetic stripe can be encoded to allow access to electronic systems, such as personal and network computers and workstations. Because the cards are stored in the kiosk as blanks, they are not accessible or activated until they are issued to the employee, reducing the possibility of unauthorized issuance of employee identification cards.
- the employer has the capability of changing the authorization parameters provided to each employee.
- the identification card is dispensed and provided to the employee.
- the self-service identification card station may also be utilized for printing and issuing gift cards as described in United States Patent Application 12/077,431. It is contemplated that the identification card blanks 140 may be utilized as gift cards and the value of the card added may be included in the card's magnetic stripe or RFID Chip.
- the present invention also includes a system for creating and printing identification cards as shown in Figure 5.
- the system may include a user interface 502, an identification card information database 506, an identification card templates database 510, a processing unit 515, and a printing unit 520.
- the user interface 502 allows the customer to communicate with the system.
- the identification card information database contains information about specific identification card recipients.
- the identification card templates database 510 contains different backgrounds and layouts that may be used with different identification cards.
- the processing unit communicates with each component of the system and coordinates the process of obtaining an identification card.
- the identification information database 506 stores specific identification card recipient information.
- the identification information database 506 may be utilized at a later date to retrieve information about the identification card recipient. For example, if a child is issued an identification card, the information may be stored in the identification information database 506. If the child disappears, the identification information database can be accessed to retrieve information about the missing child and provide that information to the relevant authorities. The information provided to authorities would include the picture of the child and, if recorded, other biometric information that could aid in the search and identification of the identification card.
